If it is like the F-body setup the only adjustment is in the actual rotor area of the rear brakes.
you have to pull the rotor and the adjuster is on the bottom of the backing plate.
I adjust mine so that the parking brake holds when the handle is at 5 clicks. Do one side at a time until 5 clicks hold the rotor, then do the other side until 5 clicks hods that side and then put it all back together.
for some reason I have to adjust mine about once every 4 months or so.
